I would suggest attempting a Repair by following the below instructions. This process simultaneously updates firmware as well as returns your product to factory settings. Let me know if this helps by rating/commenting this solution!

Your player might hang up. Use a pen tip or other sharp object to insert the RESET hole gently on the side of the player and connect it again to your PC.
If it is still not recognized, your player may be at fault. Try the Philips Device Manager software.

NOTE: Contents will be removed by using the repair function.

Install the Philips Device Manager and run it with your player connected to your PC. You can download it under the Software & drivers section.

Click the Repair tab in the Device Manager, press and hold the corresponding recovery key on the player when connecting it to your PC.

Dear Sir,

MP3 players use the popular USB connection which sometimes produces errors while connecting. These messages are similar to the "Device Not Recognized" error received with various USB devices. Fixing an MP3 player is sometimes specific to the brand, but they are so similar that most can be fixed the same troubleshooting steps.

Instructions

Device Manager

Click "Start" and go to "Control Panel." Double-click "System" and locate the Hardware tab to find the Device Manager. Vista and Windows 7 users can just type "Device Manager' from the start menu.

Locate "Disk Drives" from the list and double-click "Portable Device." If there is an exclamation mark or other error on the device, go to the "Drivers" tab.

Click "Uninstall" and remove the player. Restart the computer and attach the player reinstall the drivers.

Anti-virus conflicts

Plug the player into a different computer to see if it gets recognized. If it does not, contact the manufacturer to find out if it is broken.

Turn off your anti-virus program on your PC if the device works on other computers. Reinstall the drivers using the device manager as described in section 1.

Plug in the player to confirm the connection.

Other solutions

Check the battery level and make sure the batter is not low or depleted. A low battery will sometimes prevent the player from connecting. Let it charge from the power cord, if necessary.

Verify that you have at least Service Pack 1 installed. Go to the Start menu and type "Run." Press Enter.

Type "Winver" in the box and press "Enter." The Windows version will be displayed along with any installed service packs. Download a service pack from Microsoft, if applicable.

Remove the player from the USB port and push a pin into the reset hole located on the bottom. Reconnect to see if the problem is resolved.

Check the connection to make sure it's secure. The cable should fit firmly into both the player and the computer. Connect to a different USB port if you have one available.

If the player is showing but not the files it will be good to use a search on the drive- the player as the search object- for all types of files.
If there is some lock on the files then it will not show up and will need to check if the folders are locked, but a search will indicate al files which can be opened.
Also in the first place check the properties of the player which will indicate the memory used in the player.

Press the button with the returning arrow at the top. The use the skip forwards and back buttons until you see the FM radio function. Press the play button to activate and once in you can use the forward and back buttons to scan for stations.

If this doesn't work, you could download emodio and update the firmware.
